    Looking for a better lens to shoot youth hockey - 80-200mm f4?

    I took this at the beginning of the year... These were taken with almost no arena lights on... and only dealing with a bit of natural light. You should do fine with a 80-200 F4... but probably even better with a 70-200 F2.8... Especially in low light.

    D7100 camera settings?

    Great time to try out different settings. Try different ISO values. Aperture is going to be based on what you are trying to capture and how much DOF you want in the image. I like the idea of going with manual for days like this.

    Regional threads?

    Wondering if this would be a good idea. It could benefit some photogs by being able to get group photowalks within their area. Maybe post up any regional ongoings as well. Just a thought.

    So last night went out into the cold... my always trusty D90 however was not so...

    I could not really say old faithful was faithful to me last night. The camera started acting all buggy in the cold weather. Overexposed shots... Flashing green LCD screen... Then getting a "CHA" error code. While it was only 36* out with the windchill it felt much much colder, and being right...

    Hi all, You can add me to the list of D90 users! lol

    You could always sell off one of the other cameras you have to help fund the 105mm. They are great lenses for the money... and more than likely one of the other 2 cameras will end up finding their way onto a shelf. If you have a D3100 and 5100, no need to keep both, as they are both very...

    Hi all, You can add me to the list of D90 users! lol

    While the D5100 has the flip out screen which would make awkward shots easier to take... The D90 would be no worse just because you are unable to flip a screen. It's all about the photographer at that point.

    Ring Macro flash

    Older museums that contain light sensitive paintings (historic) will not allow flash. You can most likely get away with flash with more modern pieces (20th century) that have not yet had a chance to get affected by harsh lighting. Usually areas with statues and the such will allow... but not...

    Just picked up a Yongnuo YN-560II...

    When installed on my D90 in M mode, the shutter ended up locking up taking either really dark photos, really overexposed photos or half a photo. Anyone else have this problem? Shut it down, put on my SB-600 and no problems... back to normal. My intentions with the lens is more for running it...

    When is the right time to use flash?

    OK, I've watched plenty of videos on youtube on how to set up lighting for portraits and the like... but provided you do not have a light meter, when should it be necessary? Excluding portraits and events... I'm just referring to your everyday out and about. Provided you took all other...
